R142b may continue to be in short supply, and the profitability of HFCS refrigerants has improved

Benefiting from the rapid growth of downstream PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) demand, the company's product R142b, as the raw material of PVDF, is in short supply in the market, with a large year-on-year increase in price and a significant year-on-year increase in product gross profit margin. According to the data of Baichuan Yingfu, the annual average price (tax included) of R142b in 2021 was 83000 yuan / ton, a year-on-year increase of 425.0%. The supply and demand pattern of R142b, which is used as PVDF raw material, is difficult to reverse in the short term and is expected to continue to contribute higher profits to the company. Meanwhile, the gross profit margin of HFCS refrigerant, the company's main product, has improved compared with 2020, which has a partial positive impact on the company's performance. According to the data of Baichuan Yingfu, the annual average prices (including tax) of R134a, R125, R32 and R22 in 2021 were RMB 26000, 34000, 14000 and 17000 / T respectively, with a year-on-year increase of + 47.9%, + 118.3%, + 16.4% and + 19.9% respectively. The dark time of the refrigerant industry has passed. With the arrival of quotas approaching, the inflection point of the refrigerant industry may have arrived. The production capacity of R32, R125, R134a, R22 and R142b of the company is 4, 5.2, 6.5, 1440 and 4200 tons respectively. It is China's leading refrigerant enterprise. The rise of a highly deterministic cycle of the refrigerant industry in the future will bring greater performance flexibility to the company.
